I'm new to the forum and in the process of buying a 2017 cx5 gt awd. Is this problem still on going with the new cx5's or was this a problem just with 2014 models and older? The believe the 2016 and 2017 cx5s have an electronic parking brake. Maybe Mazda solved the problem with the rear brakes by making it electronic instead of a manual brake? Any thoughts?

The problem started occurring with the introduction of the electronic parking brake in 2016, and continued to the 2016.5 model. No idea if it is fixed yet on the 2017.
